The Only Hope For Me Is You

This may not seem to be a great poem because I have used the same verse twice. For that reason, it could be classed as a song. However, the first inclusion of this particular verse was to provide a transition from the happy side to the sad side of the relationship. The second inclusion of the verse was because I like to end my poems with a line similar to the title of the poem.

Now you’re in my life, I can’t deny, The feeling inside, a love multiplied, From the intensity I cannot hide, I will always strive to keep you mine, You are the one, my everything, My reason to live, my purpose for existing, Only you could call at 4 in the morning, And my face would still retain a grin, Though we have our ups and downs, I will always stick around, Because what I feel inside now, Would make even Cupid proud, You feature in all of my happiest dreams, All my perfect fantasies, You are the one who makes me complete, I can’t live without you, it seems, The only hope for me is you, I need you in everything I do, Your absence only provokes a gloom. So deep, my heart has no clue, Without you my life lacks all direction, Simple tasks turn into complexion, You rule the roost, my heart’s infection, You are my one crazy obsession, I need you now, I need you forever, Keeping you is my greatest endeavour, The way I’m feeling, I’ll never surrender, I’ll keep fighting whatever the weather, And I wonder whether you feel the same, Do you need my presence since that day in May, Am I the light that guides you through your day, Bring out the best in every decision you make, You are what my life desires, But am I your heart’s burning fire, We may not be the best, but as it transpires, You are all that I require, The only hope for me is you, I need you in everything I do, Your absence only provokes a gloom. So deep, my heart has no clue, Even after all we’ve been through, Our countless threats to move on to pastures new, You may not feel the same as I do, But the only hope for me is you.
